Kein Sex ist auch keine Lösung / No Sex is No Option (2011)
Comedy
The successful advertiser Tom Moreno (Stephan Luca) knows everything about women. He is particularly well versed in the art of getting the ladies laid and getting rid of them after the third night the latest. Of course he hadn't met Elisa (Marleen Lohse) yet, the new art director of his agency, who – quite to his bewilderment – seems relentlessly unimpressed by Tom's time-tested scam. To make matters worse, with his friends having to deal with their own quite peculiar problems, there doesn't seem to be anybody who could possibly help the lady-killer out of his identity crisis: Vince (Oliver Fleischer) finds his wife in Tom's bed, Luke (Johannes Allmayer) learns from Tom's mother (Corinna Harfouch) – of all people – that no sex isn't the answer either, Paule (Anna Thalbach) falls in love with a suit (Michael Lott) and turns from the classical "buddy" to a seductive femme fatale. On top of that Tom's boss Rolf (Armin Rohde) reveals that the agency stands on the verge of bankruptcy. Hardly surprising that Tom starts to neglect his special "how-to-avoid-relationships" – rules…
